Meet Dr. Timothy House

Dr. House believes the best thing about being a dentist is being able to help someone. He is grateful to be able to take away pain in one appointment, restore some self-confidence by transforming a smile, share a laugh with one of his notoriously bad jokes, or give patients the knowledge so they can prevent future pain or problems.

He loves getting to know his patients as people. He says the best part of his day is to learn about their interests and to have the opportunity to be part of their life. No two patients are the same and every single person requires a unique dental care plan, different approach, and different home care.

Dr. House believes that his patients change his life more than he changes theirs. They make him want to try to be a better person and practitioner so he can do his best by them.

Education and Continuing Education

Dr. House believes in obtaining as much continuing education as possible to ensure that he has the knowledge to help every individual patient. Education is a vital facet of dental care, both for the patients and for the staff.

Dr. House attends national dental conferences every year to get the latest dental information from national and international leaders in the field. He also keep current with journals and the latest research to stay on the forward edge of restorative and cosmetic technology.

Giving Back

Dr. House has participated in two humanitarian dental trips over his career. He has spent time as part of groups that provided dental care to severely underserved areas of Costa Rica and the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. He also served two years as part of the U.S. Public Health Service as part of the Indian Health Service with the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma to provide free care to all patients.

Dr. House also has volunteered with the Remote Access Medical group, which travels to parts of the U.S. with underserved areas to provide free dental care to all patients who show up. Making sure that patients have some form of access to dental care has always been a priority for Dr. House.
